Foetal Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava-Not Always a Benign Finding?
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to assess the prevalence of extra-cardiac anomalies and genetic variations in foetuses diagnosed with persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) alongside a structurally normal heart. Their findings revealed that 25% of the cases had associated structural anomalies and 9.5% had genetic abnormalities, suggesting that PLSVC may not be a benign finding and highlighting the need for thorough anatomical assessments and potential genetic testing in affected foetuses.
